In the song, Orelsan sings that «l'avenir appartient à ceux qui se lèvent à l'heure où je me couche» ("the future belongs to those who wake up when I go to sleep"), which is a reference to the French proverb «L'avenir appartient à ceux qui se lèvent tôt» (roughly translated as "the early bird catches the worm"). The line suggests that he and Gringe have no futures, because they go to bed so late (at a time when one would usually be waking up).

Music video

The music video for the song was released worldwide on November 5, 2015. It features shots of Orelsan and Gringe rapping to the words of the song blended with clips from the film Comment c'est loin through chroma keying.[2]
